The event was co-sponsored by the Lower Shore Parkinson's Support Group, the Caregivers Resource Center at MAC, Inc., and PRMC. The agenda included a thorough explanation of what modern science knows about PD, some interesting history of PD, and the medications and methods used to manage the disease. A demonstration of the use of the Internet fortelemedicine was provided with an audiovisual Q&A with Dr. Ray Dorsey, Director of the Johns Hopkins PDMD Center.

Additionally, presentations focusing on physical therapy, speech therapy, local caregiver resources, the value of staying active, and student designed studies by physical therapy students at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore in collaboration with members of the Lower Shore Parkinson's Support Group were included.

Our thanks to all those involved in making this terrific educational opportunity possible.
